Anthony was tracking the increasing number of animals in the zoo. at 9 a. m., there were 56 animals. at 11 a. m., there were 60 animals. if anthony made the function f(x) = 2x − 38, what would the 2 represent?

Here 2 represents the rate of change of animal per unit time or we can say the rate at which animals were increasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for any linear function with the equation of the type:

y=f(x)=mx+c.

m represents the slope of the line or we can say it represents the rate of change of the function.

Anthony was tracking the increasing number of animals in the zoo. At 9 a.m., there were 56 animals. At 11 a.m., there were 60 animals.

Here we are given a equation as:

f(x)=2x-38.

So, here 2 represents the rate of change of animal per unit time or we can say the rate at which the animals were increasing.

number one is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation: dogs and cats are mentioned, no other animals
